Social setting was nice. In the dorm rooms there are curtains around the bed (kinda hard to tell what’s going on from the pics) and it creates like a little room. There are free activities in the hostal like tamales making classes. Nice vibe....

Staff was really welcoming even if I got there a couple minutes late. Everyone is social and they have a WhatsApp group chat that keeps everyone looped in on events or runs to get stuff that you might need for your stay.
